   I had a car down about 70mm with a lower brace and it was fine except speedbumps and extremely bumpy country roads, where I occasionally got a scrape but still nothing life threatening, unless you hit a f*** off tree stump, you'l be fine, only thing it will damage in the brace, and they're pretty hardy...
   
   great handing upgrade too...

   My Furio is lowered 40mm allround, but its on 17's But even wit the standard 15" vts rims i think it would be fine, or as the guy above said, unless you hit a tree sump your quite screwed lol
